SC. UCLA VIE FOR PCC TITLE
$2000 set as goal in campus drive
Local teams tied for casaba loop leadership
by Lucien Gandolfo
For 18 long years the Bruins have been trying to cop a PCC basketball Loop title. This year the only obstacle that stands in the way of UCLA is Bobby Muth and his band of local hoopsters tomorrow night. Right now the two teams are tied for loop laurels, so tomorrow's contest at Westwood decides the southern division winner.
Both teams &re “all out” for victory. Wilbur Johns’ crew will shoot the works, as it is now or never. SC is after the title and is certainly not going to let the Bruins grab its first. Besides the Trojans want to get even for that surprise defeat the Westwooders handed them a few weeks ago.
To the victor goes the right to represent the southern end of the PCC against the top team from up north in a play-off for the coast crown. Should our team win tomorrow, SC will meet the northern division champs minus four players due to navy (Continued on Page Six)

ADMIRAL NIMITZ- HEADQUARTERS, Guam, Feb. 16.—(U.P)—More than 1200 United States carrier-based aircraft, in the first great seaborne assault against the Japanese homeland, are attacking Tokyo and its industrial environs as the climax to the most daring foray in the history of the American navy.
Fleet Adm. Chester W. Nimitz dis-
closed that a powerful task force under Vice Adm. Marc A. (Pete) Mitscher, master of carrier warfare, had carried American naval air might to the heart of the enemy's crumbling Pacific empire.
Military targets, air bases, and Japanese aircraft are being blasted by the greatest carrier force the I world has ever seen.
Spring term registration complexity ended
With registration plans definitely completed, students who follow the rules established should have very little trouble in registering for ,the spring term, Howard W. Patmore, registrar, announced.
Opening on Thursday, Mar. 1, the first day is planned for the registration of freshmen and university junior college students. Doors of the Physical Education building will open at 8:30 a.m. for junior college students.
Freshmen whose names are included from A to L will sign up for classes starting at 1 p.m., while other freshmen students are requested to report at 2 p.m.
On Friday, Mar. 2 the second day of registration, sophomores. A-L, and special students will receive the first call at 8:30 a.m. At 10 a.m. all other sophomores will report, and juniors, seniors, and graduate students will gather at 1 p.m.

Admittance to these classes will require the usual blue restricted j class cards which may be obtained from faculty advisers at the time I of registration. I
Beginning in the spring term the new plan for classes in foreign languages goes into effect. All la classes in languages will meet five times a week. This does not apply to the more advanced language courses.
“This plan has been established to enable the language student to develop his conversational ability in the language to a greater extent,” Mr. Patmore said. “Although the class will convene five days a week, in reality the course will not require any more homework than before and three units of credit will still be given,” he explained.
During the days of registration there will be a special room where veterans may obtain aid. Men from the veterans’ administration will be present to answer questions and discuss problems of the returned veteran. Trovets have volunteered to staff the room, 206 Physical Education, with
members who will aid in guiding the veterans through registration and who Mill shoy them around the university.
Students who wish to save time by filling out Registration Book I in advance of registration may obtain them now in the registrar’s of-; fice.

Navy students will receive all their supplies for registration through their barracks where everything will be distributed to them.
Knights and Amazons will as-j sist students, at registration. Members of the Knights should consult the list which will be posted in the Knight office to check on the hours they are assigned to work.
All Trojans are urged to register on the day assigned to their group, for it will save time and confusion for everyone concerned, Mr. Patmore stated.
